CARROLL CEO Runs $100K of Kicks to Boys & Girls Clubs of Miami-Dade

Atlanta, GA-based CARROLL’s founder and CEO Patrick Carroll has given away $100,000 worth of top-line sneakers to underserved children in Miami, FL.

Carroll brought in famous sneaker aficionado Benjamin Kickz, otherwise known as the Sneaker Don, to load a Brink’s truck filled with 600 pairs of high-end sneakers to distribute to members of the Boys & Girls Clubs of Miami-Dade’s Hank Kline Club during its Kicks 4 Kids charity event.

More than 25 CARROLL employees from the company’s FL properties volunteered at the function as part of the CARROLL Community Impact program, which provides opportunities for employees to get involved in their immediate community by giving time and resources in six key areas: children and schools, environment, animals, first responders, elderly and people in need.

Patrick Carroll, who relied on the Boys & Girls Clubs organization and facilities as a child growing up in South FL, currently serves on the board of the Tampa Bay chapter.

CARROLL owns 43 properties, representing nearly 15,000 units, in FL.
